TEHRAN (FNA)- Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei expressed his deep condolences to the bereaved families of those Hajj pilgrims who died as a result of a crane collapse in holy Mecca on Friday.
Chief of the Supreme Leader's Office Mohammad Mohammadi Golpayegani, in a phone conversation with Qazi Asgar, the caretaker of Iranian pilgrims in Mecca, conveyed condolences of Ayatollah Khamenei on the deaths of pilgrims in Mecca.
Ayatollah Khamenei, in his message, sympathized with the families of the victims and demanded adequate medical services to the Iranians injured in the crane fall.
At least 107 people were killed and 238 more were injured when the crane collapsed on to the Grand Mosque during storms in the Muslim holy city of Mecca on Friday.
Storms were lashing the Saudi city of Mecca when strong winds brought down the crane that was part of construction works.
Tons of rubble and debris crashed to the ground on top of scores of people gathering in the mosque for 6:30 prayers when a section of the crane crashed through the roof.
